RASPBERRY BAKED ALASKA
Steps:
- Slice the cake into six 1/2-inch-thick slices. Cut six (2 1/2-inch) circles--one from each slice--with an unfluted round cookie cutter, discarding the scraps. (You can also use a small knife.) Place the cake rounds 2 inches apart on a flat dish that will fit in your freezer.
- Soften the sorbet and ice cream just enough to be able to scoop them with a standard 2 1/4-inch-diameter ice cream scoop (15 to 30 seconds in the microwave works). Fill half the scoop with raspberry sorbet and the rest of the scoop with vanilla ice cream and place an ice cream ball, flat side down, in the middle of each cake round. Freeze for at least 30 minutes, until the ice cream is very hard.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
- To make the Swiss meringue, place the egg whites and sugar in a heat-proof glass bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Whisk the mixture almost constantly, until it reaches 120 degrees F on a candy thermometer and the sugar has dissolved. Pour the mixture into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt and beat on medium speed for one minute, then on high speed for 5 minutes, until the egg whites form stiff, glossy peaks.
- Transfer the cake rounds and ice cream to a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Working quickly, spread the meringue with a spoon or small spatula, making lots of peaks all over with the back of the spoon. (You can also use a pastry bag fitted with a large fluted tip and pipe the meringue thickly around each ball of ice cream and cake.) Be sure all of the ice cream is covered with meringue. Bake for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, until the edges of the meringues are browned, turning the pan once to brown evenly. Transfer to dessert plates, drizzle Fresh Raspberry Sauce around each baked Alaska, and serve immediately.
- Place the raspberries, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 4 minutes. Pour the cooked raspberries, the jam, and the framboise into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until smooth. Pour into a container and chill. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to one week.

VANILLA-RASPBERRY BAKED ALASKA
When a simple sundae just won't do, try Martha's individual ice cream bombes instead. Covered in a blanket of marshmallow-y torched meringue, these dome-shaped treats are made with a dacquoise base and a winning combination of vanilla ice cream and raspberry sorbet.

Steps:
- Dacquoise: Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Use a pencil to trace six 3 1/2-inch-diameter circles on a piece of parchment. Turn over parchment and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Using a food processor, finely grind almonds. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in confectioners' sugar. In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat together egg whites and salt until frothy. Continue beating on high speed while gradually adding superfine sugar until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes. Remove bowl from mixer and gently fold almond mixture into meringue. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain round tip. Use a small amount of meringue to adhere prepared parchment to each corner of baking sheet. Pipe rounds of meringue using traced circles as a guide, starting at outer edge of each circle and moving toward center. Bake until firm and dry, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Let cool completely on sheet.
- Filling: Line six 4-inch bowls with plastic wrap and freeze until chilled, at least 20 minutes. Spread about 6 tablespoons sorbet into each bowl, pressing firmly into bottom to create a smooth surface and prevent air pockets. Freeze until solid, about 1 hour. Spread about 1/2 cup ice cream evenly over sorbet in each bowl, pressing firmly to create a smooth surface and prevent air pockets. Place one dacquoise round, top-side down, on ice cream, pressing gently to adhere. Wrap overhanging plastic over the top and freeze until solid, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Unwrap plastic on top of bowls (dip exterior of bowls in warm water to loosen, if necessary). Invert bowls onto a rimmed baking sheet, remove plastic wrap, and refreeze until ready to serve.
- Meringue Topping: Just before serving, combine egg whites and sugar in the heatproof bowl of a stand mixer set over (not in) a pot of simmering water. Whisk until sugar is dissolved and mixture is warm to the touch. Transfer bowl to mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a 3/8-inch plain round tip (such as Ateco #804); decoratively pipe meringue over each bombe to cover. Lightly brown meringue all over with a small kitchen torch. Serve immediately.
INA GARTEN'S RASPBERRY BAKED ALASKA
A 'WOW' dessert that you can make ahead, freeze, and bake just before serving.

Steps:
- Bring raspberries, sugar, and ¼ cup water to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 4 minutes. Transfer raspberry mixture to a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add jam and liqueur and process until smooth. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.
- Do Ahead: Sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.
- Slice cake into six ½"-thick slices. Cut out six 2½"-diameter circles-one from each slice-with an unfluted round cookie cutter; discard scraps. (You can also use a small knife.) Place rounds 2" apart on a flat dish that will fit in your freezer.
- Soften sorbet and ice cream just enough to be able to scoop them with a standard 2¼"-diameter ice cream scoop (15-30 seconds in the microwave works). Fill half the scoop with sorbet and the rest of the scoop with ice cream. Arrange scoop of sorbet/ice cream flat side down in the center of each round. Freeze until ice cream is very hard, at least 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 500°. Heat egg whites and sugar in a medium heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, whisking constantly, until a candy thermometer registers 120° and sugar is dissolved. Pour mixture into a large bowl. Add vanilla, cream of tartar, and salt. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat 1 minute, then increase speed to high and beat until egg whites form stiff, glossy peaks, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer rounds to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Working quickly, spread meringue with a spoon or small spatula over rounds and sorbet/ice cream, making lots of peaks all over with the back of the spoon. (You can also use a pastry bag fitted with a large fluted tip and pipe meringue thickly around each ball of ice cream and cake.) Be sure all of the sorbet/ice cream is covered with meringue. Bake, rotating pan once halfway through, until edges of meringues are browned, 2½-3 minutes. Divide among plates, drizzle fresh raspberry sauce around meringues, and serve immediately.
- Do Ahead: Baked Alaskas can be assembled 3 days ahead. Keep frozen-but don't cover them, because the meringue won't freeze hard and you'll ruin the piping. Bake before serving.
